**kunar** · 11-14-2007, 12:57 PM

i saw one a couple days ago. looked to be late 90's with a more aggressive front valance (looked like the new STX trucks) side skirts, fiberglass bed cover and wing. was red and 2wd, dunno what engine or trans. not my thing but was neat to see. i wish i had my camera.

No I see about a hundred every day. There is no such beast as a Harley Davidson Ranger it's a home built rig.

a guy I worked with in Columbia (SC) had one too, his was 4wd and gray in color... traded it for a jazzed up F150 at Carmax.... he got into big payments he couldn't afford (Ranger was paid off and nothing wrong with it) gas mileage killed him
